I also want to mention that I have had an odd pain in my left mid-upper back. It stabs then lets go. Sometimes a few times in a brief period of time, sometimes one and done. Hope it's not my kidney.
Oh, I forgot to mention that I no longer have temperature sensation in my feet. The ice-cold metal of the doctor's probe felt neutral or even warm to me yesterday. However, I can still feel pinpricks.
Sensory:
-Pins and needles: 7
-Tingles: 1
-Dysesthetic pain: 9, some in my tongue. :( Of course still in my feet and legs, back, thighs... yeah, it stunk. Sometimes the feeling of my clothing was unbearable. Like when you have a sunburn and you wear something with lace.
-Paresthesias: 1, I have a weird band on my forehead that I guess I will throw under paresthesias, because it doesn't seem to fit anywhere else. Sort of numb feeling, though-Numbness: 2, definitely having issues with my left fingertips, my tongue, and of course parts of my feet
-Vision: 4, same old same old
-Nerve pain: 7
-Hearing: 1
Motor:
-Walking: 4, which I attribute to medication, not MS
-Sore muscles: 4
-Fine motor: 3
-Weak muscles: 5
-Spasticity: 4, backs of legs
Cognitive:

-Memory: 1
-Attention: 2
-Confusion: 1
General:
-Fatigue: 8 all day, but I felt great in the evening, more like 4 or 5
-Balance: 4, and again, I believe this was more medication than MS. I had been doing better with my balance the night before last--I did not need to hold onto things to walk to the bathroom. Last night not so much.

Emotions: Irritable! Most of the day, I was irritable, but I was better in the evening. Actually, I perked up around 6:00 and was feeling much better in general. Less tired, not dizzy at all. Just pain. Whatever was affecting me wore off. Or the steroids kicked in! Today was the last day, and I only took 10 mg.
